IT Buyback & Recycling · Singapore & Malaysia

We buy your used IT — and pay for the value inside it

Maxicom pays businesses for their retired and surplus IT instead of charging to take it away. We buy servers, laptops, networking, storage, memory and components — working, faulty or end-of-life — recover the value inside, destroy your data to NIST 800-88, collect free across Singapore (and arrange collection across Malaysia), and pay in SGD. Send your list and we'll send a number.

However you're selling, there's a door for you

Selling used IT?

You've got IT to sell and you know roughly what it is. We buy it for the value inside — any condition, any quantity.

Need to dispose or recycle?

You want your old IT gone responsibly, with data destroyed and the paperwork for your auditor. We do that — and pay you instead of billing you.

A bigger event or trade stock?

An office closing, a data centre decommissioning, a refresh, or a reseller's surplus. We take the whole lot, fast and discreet.

Why we pay

Disposal that pays you, not the other way round

Most ways of getting rid of business IT cost you money: a scrap dealer pays a pittance for metal, and a shredder-only recycler charges a fee to crush it. Both throw away the real value — the memory, processors, drives and components inside, which are in constant demand on the global secondary market.

We're built to recover that value. We assess what's in your hardware, destroy the data, and pay you for what it's worth — while still collecting it for free in Singapore. Same clean, documented disposal; you just get paid for it.

What we buy

What we buy

A business and bulk service — from a single fleet to a warehouse, in Singapore or across the causeway in Malaysia. The bigger and more component-dense the lot, the sharper the price.
How it works

How selling your business IT works

  1. Send your list. A spreadsheet, an inventory, or just photos — make, model, rough condition and quantity.
  2. Get a written quote. Priced in SGD against the live secondary market, line-item where it helps.
  3. We collect. Free across Singapore, arranged across Malaysia, on a documented chain of custody.
  4. Data wiped, you get paid. Certificate of destruction, settlement in SGD once your inventory is reconciled.

Who we work with

Who sells to us

Offices and corporates clearing space · IT teams running a refresh · data centres decommissioning across Singapore and the Johor/Iskandar corridor · banks, healthcare and government needing certified data destruction · schools and universities · and resellers, distributors, ITADs and MSPs clearing surplus and client stock. One unit or a warehouse — the process is the same, and the paperwork always holds up.

Data security

Nothing moves until your data is destroyed

Every data-bearing drive is sanitised to NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 (HDD) and IEEE 2883-2022 (SSD/NVMe), with a certificate of destruction, on a documented chain of custody. Drives that can't be wiped are physically destroyed through a vetted partner. Certified destruction is what makes buyback safe under Singapore's PDPA and Malaysia's PDPA — so it's included in the deal, not billed as an extra.

The regional picture

Why Singapore and Malaysia are a buyer's market for used IT

Singapore concentrates an unusual amount of enterprise IT into a small footprint — regional headquarters, MAS-regulated banks, government and GLC systems, telcos and a mature colocation market — all refreshing on tight, well-governed cycles. Just across the causeway, Malaysia's Johor and Iskandar corridor has become one of South-East Asia's fastest-growing data-centre regions, with build-outs and early refreshes generating waves of decommissioned servers, storage and networking. Penang and the wider Malaysian belt add a deep electronics-manufacturing base that turns over components constantly.

Maxicom sits between that outflow and a regional and global secondary market. That's why we can pay competitively for volume from both countries, meet the certified-destruction bar that finance and government require, and still handle the whole thing — data, logistics and paperwork — for you. Whether you're clearing one server room in the CBD or a row in a Johor data centre, the model is the same: send the list, get a number in SGD.

FAQ

The short answers

Do you pay for old IT, or charge to take it?
We pay. We recover the value inside your retired IT and pay you in SGD, with collection and certified data destruction included — the opposite of a scrap yard or shredder-only recycler.
What do you buy?
Business IT of every kind — servers, laptops, storage, networking, memory, CPUs, GPUs and components — working, faulty or end-of-life, one fleet to a full estate.
Is my data destroyed?
Always, before anything is resold. Drives are sanitised to NIST 800-88 / IEEE 2883 with a certificate of destruction; drives that can't be wiped are physically destroyed through a vetted partner.
Do you collect, and is it free?
Free across Singapore for business-volume loads, and we arrange collection across Malaysia. You get a written quote in SGD with no obligation until you accept.
Do you buy from resellers and traders too?
Yes — the trade is some of our best supply. Resellers, distributors, ITADs and MSPs sell us surplus and client stock, and many buy from us as well.
